No worries! We all like what we like! My "ideal" speaker configuration is MT. One midbass and one tweeter with tweeter on top. This just seems the most natural to me. It does (soundstage-wise) what I feel a speaker should do. I suppose, in a way, a more "ideal" speaker would be coaxial, but I'm not sure any coaxial out there can compete with RAAL right now (unless it's way out of my price range). And, I haven't listened to any coaxials for any length of time, so I dunno. So, Ascend's speakers are the bees knees for me.
My ideal setup is:
tweeter + midbass that extends down just far enough to blend with a subwoofer at ~80hz. So, I'm thinking the MT speaker should extend down to ~60hz or so?
A subwoofer that is setup for smoothest response while sitting in my main chair.
I want as much resolution and natural and smooth dispersion as humanly possible, as well as all the dynamic range (including output) that I can muster out of these speakers.
(This is why I want a RAAL/SEAS/BAMBOO version of the CBM-170 SE)
This is what I THINK I want, after hearing everything I've heard.
I know multiple subwoofers are best for modal smoothing, but I only care about 1 listening seat.
